After killing feng and before doing garajal trash in msv, loremaster cho says theres a legendary weapon or power in the vaults (or something along those lines). Possible it could be tied to the legendary? Or was that reference covered with the will of the emperor encounter.

Its in Reference to the Stuff you see during the last 2 bosses in there.

Hoping that we'll be able to choose whichever cloak we want similar to the 600 ilvl cloak since I took the caster dps cloak as a resto druid. Not like 10k will break my bank but I've already spent about 50k on legendary items already (3 Sha gems, 7 or so Eyes, 5 or so Crown of Heavens).

I would assume (based on the new string about requiring the cloak of virtue) the legendary part is just an item you use on your current cloak to turn it into the legendary and the proc's is set on each type as they are now (healer on spirit cloak, tank proc on the tanking cloaks and so forth) so if you want a different type than you initially selected you'll most likely have to buy the other version before turning it into a legendary. (or I'm sure there is another gold sink to swap it after as well, most likely you'll have to buy both the other 600 cloak and the new item to turn it into legendary)

The caster proc seems underwhelming, melee one seems incredibly powerful, will have to see how they pan out. Was hoping for spec specific ones to be honest.

Actually it seems to me it will be an item used to turn your current cloak into the legendary. The current 600 cloaks are also categorized as Cloak of Virtue.

The caster proc while not bad doesn't scale like the melee one so that could be a potential issue, but its still early they can change things around yet.

but is it just me, or should every single heroic raider use the tank one? I guess it would make DPS checks harder, but having 25 people have an ankh every minute seems pretty amazing.... cut down to 1 healer on 10 man and 2-3 healers on 25 man

You dont magially get hps from the tank cloak. Even tanks are probably not gonna use the tank cloak.

Volun-told - A supposedly optional event, award, assignment, or activity in which a person (or persons) are required to attend either by persons-in-charge nominating them or their peers expecting them to be there. The individual often has no say in the matter, and non-attendance in frowned upon.I am so tired of seeing terrible people, being admired, for being terrible people.

Depending on how it works (old rogue's cheat death vs current Ardent defender) might be able to not bother using raid CD's for big one time hits to the point of semi game-breaking. If everyone has it, think H primordius hitting black blob or dark animus enrage except it doesn't actually kill you

By the wording of it, it just simply negates the hit the kills you. So if you are at 400k health and get hits for 2 million, you are 400k health, if you are at 10k health and gets hit for 15k, you are at 10k health.

Either way, it is not gonna let your drop any healers. If anything it can be used to cheese a mechanic on some fights, but it will come at the cost of a lot of dps, that dps could possibly be more game-breaking than the tank cloak proc.

Actually getting say extra X seconds after one ability that was suppose to 1 shot you till the next one can be fairly fairly nice and make easier enrages. Plus the only ones who would be suffering from that are casters and range. Str somewhat, and agility the least.

But yes, unless they make some sort of rare but hard hitting aoe mechanics i guess might be useless.

That melee cloak should be very useful even in the next expansion, maybe even at level 100. 60% of weapon damage to all nearby enemies, 6 times. Though I can foresee that it will soon get a "Only works when below level 95" :P Not yet though, as that would be a spoiler about the next level cap.

Yes, this has the potential to be strong on mechanics like static shock on Lei-Shen, it could be very strong on some encounters, but that would still be a niche more than a requirement. Also nothing stop blizzards from putting modifiers on those bosses that makes the cloak not proc similarly how some abilities do not proc AD, rather just kill you instead.

Similarly to tiny abomination in a jar from ICC, I think it is safe to assume this cloak wont function in the next expac.

Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if they link the procs to specific cloaks, and make it so the procs only work if you're in the correct spec.
